Did you know the “original” (as in first-ever!) Celebrity Style Guide was created right here in Lake Travis?
Well, it was. Thanks to Steiner Ranch resident Heather Campbell-Green’s love of the TV show Friends and her friendship with the show’s costume designer, she was inspired to help fashionistas everywhere replicate popular celeb styles. And let’s be honest, didn’t everyone want Rachel’s haircut?
Celebrity Style Guide, an online publication, was founded in 2005 and instantly appeared on the radar for fashion gurus across the globe as the go-to spot for the accurate identification of hottest designer clothes, accessories, trends and beauty products you see on your favorite television shows, movies and celebrities.
Heather’s love of celeb style was contagious and style editors flocked to her website for her fresh content. Heather’s site has been featured as one of the top 10 “must visit” websites by People StyleWatch and she has been mentioned on ABC News and in magazines like US Weekly and InStyle.
